Day in the Life - Why We Wear Bandanas, Taking the Babies to Grannies, & Cooking at Home

[@donnaheule5275]

The plants are Cat Tails. 😃

The way they are in a row, seems someone may have intentionally introduced it to the pond.😊 Like Katie said, habitat❤

Beautiful bright , flowers 💐 As a bit of friendly information...I used to be a florist (hope to get back to it part time when I retire) and was trained to cut the stem of a flower and get it into water within 3 seconds , especially roses. Often, the freshly cut 'stem end' will not have the proper ability to drink water if [it's] exposed to the air longer than 3 seconds of it being cut. I love to make fresh flower vase arrangements, too. I bet your granny loved the one you made for her 😊

I became a dad at 50. Having supported my wife thru her 30 hours of labor and subsequent c-section, it was clear to me that she had done all the work in bringing our daughter into the world. So I tried to be as useful as I could be in infant care. Yes, many hours seemed like days and days like weeks. But I wouldn’t trade that sleeplessness and commitment to them for anything. She’s 16 and that bond is still there. It goes so fast. I believe they are born fully formed humans. Our job is to give them the support to unfold. Kinda like one of those little foam dinosaurs you put in water and they expand to 15 times their size. There is no higher calling and you are doing great.

The tall grass looks like cattails or typha latifolia. The fuzzy part can be used to bind bleeding wounds. The roots can be made into poultice for burns and sores.

Katie! You’re amazing! Great video! So great to see and hear more of you! You are a natural born communicator! So happy to see the boys! Thank you for sharing! And you are all an amazing family!! I truly appreciate all of you😇

[@myrakitchens2635]

Katie, one of the reasons, your youtube friends are interested in your channel, is because of the honest simplicity of you and your families life. At the pond you appreciate God's beauty. Y'all are so lucky to live in this small rural place, with big cities things get so completed, and it's so nice to watch your family in your everyday life. So glad y'all are such a happy loving family.

[@jamiedolen]

I agree 😊

My first good look at ira he growing an those big sweet eyes. Woody in granny arms is precious 😍. Miss my granny, she's been gone 52 years, still miss her smile. Spending time with your granny is something that you never forget. Hug her each day and tell her you love her❤

[@LoriCurtiss-xz6xm]

You two ladies are great mama’s. Katie-you coming toe to toe with yourself in baby form was hilarious-kinda “paying for your raising”. You know nobody will run over him-good thing !! Loved the picture of Granny & Woody. How precious these memories will be. Praying for y’all-as always! ❤

[@shoji...]

Katie, you had me laughing, talking about going toe to toe with yourself in baby form 😅 and then the "goat boy" stuff! 😂 Enjoyed it all as always! ✝️🌷

Omg Katie, that pond is a heavenly spot, how serene, what a beautiful place for a picnic

[@marginallycompetentgourmet]

That cereal brand is one I am familiar with. I use their oats for baking cookies, because I like the texture better. (BTW, I bought a necklace for my wife's anniversary gift, just before Ira was born, and I want to tell you she loves it. Thank you.)

[@MiMisTreasures]

Katie - I’m just at the beginning of the video, but I had to jump in the comments to tell you how adorable you are with those little freckles sprinkling across your nose - so pretty! Now, back to the video ❤

[@MsKindaSorta]

She and Cory have the best freckles

[@saner6888]

I noticed the freckles first on Corey a while back but certainly only since their pregnancies! So cute😊 have you ladies always had them? Maybe more noticeable since the babies? 🩵🩵

[@jamiedolen]

​@@saner6888I've just noticed that too. So cute 😊 And I love that yellow sunflower I've never seen one like it! 💗

[@carolyn279]

You are adorable Katie! It can be a challenge when you have a fussy baby, but they do grow out of it, so hang in there. Remember, as he grows older and starts walking, you have to keep those handles on pots and pans turned inward, never hanging over the stove. The baby could grab it. I have twins, and my Dad taught me that, and I’ve never forgotten it. 😊

[@jamiedolen]

I learned that in home economics class in highschool. Sad that they don't teach that anymore.

[@ktrayan1]

My son hated to be held like a baby from about day 5, and he always wanted to move on to the next step asap. Would scream when he couldn’t crawl, started climbing at 6/7 months, just learned to ride a pedal bike and he’s only 2 and a half, but a determined boy. It goes by so fast girls, hang in there even when they are stubborn 😂🤪🤩🙂 It’s quite a blessing these two boys will have each other to entertain them!! ❤️

[@bettysatterfield6397]

Love the video! I grew up wearing bandanas like you do. It was the "style" when I went to school. You were big stuff if you had a different colored one than blue. I wore a pink one alot or just got a blue one of my dad's. I hated wearing a hat outside in the sun, so a bandana kept my part in my hair from sunburning & because I was short, everything I worked in was taller than me, so the bandana kept my hair clean, especially when topping & suckering tobacco. Pat said that he remembered me wearing one even after we married. I hadn't worn one in years, but may start again. They are "Cool"!

[@cheri3434]

Thanks for sharing your day! I’m amazed at the bandana questions. I totally get it. I’m 73, used to have hair very much like yours (not quite as long) and I wore bandanas all the time! In the 60’s and 70’s, I had a lot of kerchiefs that matched my outfits. Hated having my hair in my face😃. Still wear one when I’m gardening. Have a great day!

[@vbrandon1858]

[@ramonahierholzer3163]

Sweet Katie, I know I mentioned in your live how my son DID NOT like being an infant...🥰 It was a tiring time! But MAJOR blessings are on the way. He took his first step at 9 months, and the first taste of independence changed everything for him. SUPER intelligent and he morphed into an AMAZING toddler. 😂 He never crawled, didn't start out walking , just straight took off running. ❤️ All of this being said in hopes of giving you some peace in knowing that , your angel is just being who he is, and it is going to be wild and blessed ride. ❤💪🙏

[@darleneholtrop4532]

My son was the same way! He was so angry that his baby hands wouldn't move like he thought they should, and he bypassed crawling to run after his sister. He bumped into the walls when they rounded corners so much I was afraid the doctor would see the black and blue marks and call CPS!

[@maryturner3473]

My first born son was a mess. He was just like what you described. He's a very productive adult.

Corie, I so agree with you about bouquets from the garden being prettier than some boughten ones! I also love to decorate birthday cakes with flowers from the garden. It’s so simple, but very impressive! 🌺🌸🪻

The pond would be a perfect place to take the boys fishing. They will get used to being around water from the creek. Really enjoyed this video. Besides you two going "live", this is my favorite type of video. All the pictures of Granny and boys are beautiful memories. I wear a visor instead of a bandana for the same reasons you do as not to have to fix my hair. Thanks for sharing ladies. Looking forward to the next one.

Oh my, I was the same way at both of the end of my pregnancies! I craved hamburgers and especially cheesesteak subs! Had to watch eating too many fried onions at the end of my pregnancies, since I suffered from heartburn! Unfortunately also craved proper onion rings! lol! Lived off of Rolaids! Having your hair tied back is also hygienic when preparing food, good way of keeping hair out of it.

[@gayliagreen3687]

Katie you make great videos--they are interesting, you are fun and funny you have much knowledge I know without a doubt you are a good mom and are doing any and everything for the benefit of that little guy--he lacks nothing...I skimmed through the comments you have received and can not believe the things some people felt the need to say to you....they need prayer obviously....you just keep being you, enjoy raising that precious boy and teaching him the ways of The Lord and the fun of being out and about in God's creation....I know neither you or your sister need to be told how blessed you are.....may God's richest blessings continue to fall on your entire family and may a constant hedge of protection surround all of your family....Corrie I think your flower arrangement turned out great...none of my flower seeds came up due to lack of rain and city water on the seeds was of no help....maybe some of my seeds survived to come up in the fall or next spring...if not I will just buy more and try again

Wearing a seat belt is the most effective way to prevent death and serious injury in a car crash. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), drivers and front-seat passengers who wear seat belts are 45% less likely to die and 50% less likely to be moderately injured in a crash. In the center rear seat, lap and shoulder belts can reduce the risk of fatal injury by 58% in cars and 75% in SUVs, vans, and pickups

[@pjl2963]

Bandanas and stretchy, wide head bands [like gaiters] are infinitely practical! They keep your hair back when you're working, add color to your outfit, cover up bad hair days...and at 63, I have lost a significant amount of hair, and would rather not wear a wig; so they keep my head covered. Have you tried the stretchy, wide gaiter-style? I just whip them up on the sewing machine in a few minutes flat! Basically, they're just a wide tube. I source pretty knit fabric as I thrift, so now have a collection with every print and color! Loved your little wildflower bouquet...so dainty and sweet...reminds me of my Nana...she always had flowers on her table

I LOVE the fact you both wear bandanas! When I was growing up in the 1970s, it was such a popular look and I always thought the girls who wore them looked so cute and cool. It's a look you just don't see much any more so to see you both wearing bandanas brings back such a lot of happay memories - please don't ever stop! Maybe you could do a video where you both show your bandana collections? That would be really lovely. God bless.

Those are cat tails, they grow at the edge of ponds and ditches along the Roadside the Long stocks that top of them when they turn white that’s the seeds and they pollinate very quickly and they spread very quickly.

We have a lot of hawks in West Virginia too. I have several bird feeders hanging on my porch and I looked out my door and saw a hawk sitting on the roof of a car parked in front of the house. He was stalking the songbirds gathered around my feeders so I had to run him off. I haven't seen him since. I'm not sure what kind of hawk he was, he was pretty small. Corie, your flower arrangement was so pretty!

[@triciatinker9456]

If you strip the leaves off the flower stem, you arrangement will last long. The leaves cause the water to get nasty faster and your flowers will wilt faster too. Just a suggestion.

Hi Corie and Katie! Corie, when I arrange flowers - like those you are doing here - I generally start with the mid size, and arranging them in my left hand one at a time until I have a handful of sorts, then check the bottoms for a trim to even them up. Then I put them in the vase and add the larger ones to accent, and fill in with the small. Just a thought. Try it and see if that works for you. Depends also on the size of the vase also... Great to see the little darlings and Granny! And of course, BINKS!
